Here Come the Holidays: Party Ideas by the Signs

Amp up your role as hostess or host this year by throwing your best holiday bash yet! Based on your Sun sign, here's a sleighful of holiday hosting ideas sure to resonate with your nature.

Aries Keep things short and spicy by serving cocktails and hors d'oeuvres rather than a formal sit-down meal. Your fiery nature loves activity, so be sure to create space for a dance floor as you decorate in bright colors.

Taurus Quality counts, so keep your guestlist short so you can splurge on decadent drinks and snacks. A low-key get-together ensures you'll have time to catch up with friends. Make sure your party space is comfortable with soft lighting -- and even softer pillows!

Gemini Since you're a social butterfly, host a drop-in party -- and encourage guests to bring a friend. Deck your place out with wild decor, and keep the music edgy but low to encourage conversation.

Cancer Quality time with your inner circle matters most, so host a cozy dinner party. Home-cooking fits your nurturing spirit, so plan a simple menu and decorate with sentimental touches such as family photos and items from past travels.

Leo Decadence defines you, so go all-out and host a best-of-the best gourmet meal, or a cocktail party with top-label drinks. Include gold touches and regal red or purple in your decor.

As for food, offer a variety of small plates. Bring a unique touch to your gathering with meaningful party favors.

Libra You want your guests to feel as comfortable as possible, so a balanced approach to food, decor, and music is key. And since your style is elegant, think gold, silver, and white as you opt for timeless background music.

Scorpio An intimate dinner party with close friends and family is ideal for you. Celebrate the history you've all shared by giving thoughtful gifts. Finally, set the right mood with dark shades of deep reds, purples, or navy.

Capricorn You're more sentimental than you let on, so reinstate family traditions -- or create new ones -- with close friends and family. Plan a meaningful celebration that's authentic rather than fashionable. Your style is timeless, so decorate with classic colors and heirloom pieces.

Aquarius Anything goes when you host as you embrace the spirit of celebration. Since you're all about group gatherings, consider an open house-style event where guests are welcome to bring friends and arrive at their leisure.

Pisces Given your sensitive nature, smaller gatherings that allow you to bond with your guests are best for you. Tapas are the perfect food for your party -- this way, people can eat as they please. Comfortable seating and mellow music create the relaxed atmosphere you adore.
